Description
The default margins on all layouts is nonzero, LazyWidgets will be slightly smaller than intended.
Ideally, there would be zero margin and using a LazyWidget would be functionally equivalent to the normal widget once instantiated.

Research direction
Start by locating LazyWidget and the default margin definitions for layouts, then compare a lazy widget with the corresponding normal widget after instantiation. Use the discussion linked in the issue for context; done means minimizing the default margin, ideally to zero, so both widgets are functionally equivalent.
